AI-generated summary based on reviews added by customers
These valerian pillows are a hit with many cats, offering hours of playful fun and cuddles. However, some owners have found them less durable, with seams splitting and contents spilling out, especially for larger or more energetic cats. Despite the strong smell, which some find off-putting, many cats adore them, and they can be a delightful treat when used under supervision. Overall, they provide great entertainment and are loved by many feline friends.

All 4 Cats are OBSESSED!!!
All 4 cats are literally obsessed with these pillows and won’t leave them alone. One of the very nervous cats seemed to calm right down. Amazing to see her so chilled out.

My cat.
He couldn't wait for me to take them out of the bag. He absolutely loves them. I will be ordering more.

For cats that aren't fussed about catnip
I bought these because my Bengal cat really isn't that bothered about cat nip in fact he ignores it. He goes berserk with these and within seconds of having them they are soaking wet with dribble. Even our other cat loves them too although not in the same room as the Bengal they end up falling out over them.
Poor quality
This product is paper thin one of my cats had it ripped to shreds in seconds with the contents everywhere, the other cat wasn't interested, I suppose it was worth a try for the price.

My kittens love this
My 4 month old kittens love this. They maul it and it is a perfect size to kick about
Stinky!
These bags stunk out the place!
What an awful smell!
And my catnip-loving mogs showed no interest whatsoever.
Waste of money for me!

They couldn't wait for the bag to be opened!
Both my cats love these little parcels of joy.
They play with them over having treats!
Great
Cat loves them one of the first things she ever loves went for. Shame you can’t pick the colours
How to stone your cat...with legal herbs :-)
My both cats loved it! Smell is intense! I usually give them toys for half an hour or less each day. They both get crazy! Lick the bags, chase them, play with them...totally stoned after play :-) Smell lasts for around 2 months in my case.
Cats liked it
Cats tried to get this out of the packet as soon as it arrived. Scent is very strong, not sure how long the cushions will last. Not quite the "relaxing" effect I was looking for, but the cats are going crazy for it so I'm happy :)

A hit (literally!)
My 4 cats love these, came and stole them from the box before I could finish unpacking them. Now, months later, they still play with them, lick, rub, nestle up against and sleep with them. My Norwegian girl loves to bat them when thrown, good exercise for her and fun to watch. Good value toys!

Cats Love Valerian but....
One of my cats ripped the toy open within seconds! Not robust enough to withstand a cat going bonkers for Valerian (as they do!). It's a shame because these are great toys but I can't give more than a 1 star review when one of them is in pieces.
Used to be great
I buy these on a regular basis for my 3 cats, as well as for my cat guests. They used to be great, well stuffed and really really stinky (just what they love). Just ordered some more and they don't smell of anything and have hardly any stuffing in them. 2 minutes out the bag and they aren't going to smell at all. Why have they changed them?

Cats love these!
Our cats go absolutely crazy over these pillows. They have a pretty strong smell so I recommend keeping them in the bag when they're not in use. I find that popping them on the radiator to warm up helps reinvirgorate the valerian scent - and the cats love them all over again!

Didn't last for long
These cushions are a really good idea but they were smaller than expected .I am sorry to say they didn't last for more than 5 minutes as my cat ripped them open as the material is very fragile.
Cat not interested
Unfortunately my older cat showed no interest in these pillows.

Horrendous smell
I've never purchased anything with valerian in it before, so I thought it would be worth giving a try. As such, I'm not sure if the intense, disgusting smell of these pillows is normal for the product or not. Before we'd even opened the package there was a strong smell of what could only be compared to vomit, and when it was opened it was even worse. It made the entire room smell, for days. On top of that, my cat couldn't have been less interested after the first 30 seconds. A complete flop.

Overwhelming stench
My kitten won't even go near them. They smell so bad... so much that the whole room ended up reeking.
I threw them out straight away.
NEVER AGAIN

SUPER Baldinis
We love these little Baldinis. Our cats play really rough with them, but they still hold up. We're delighted. The value for money is brilliant :) !!

Baldini Cat Lick Bag with Valerian
Unfortunately, the fabric isn’t nearly as nice as it looks in the picture. It also smells really bad (although one of the cats likes the smell).

Smelled bad!
My cat backed away when I put them out and didn’t want to go near them because they smelled so bad. I just had to throw them in the bin.

Smitten!
My older cat went absolutely crazy (I’d never offered her anything with catnip before). She plays with it, squeezes and licks it, and practically gets lost in the scent...
Luckily, I tied one to a long string, the other one has already disappeared.
For my (admittedly sensitive) nose, the smell is too strong, so I keep the sachets outside on the balcony.

One out of two torn within minutes
Very disappointed with the quality of the fabric. One of the two cushions tore after just a few minutes and spread its filling all over the living room. The second one is holding up for now, but I'm wary...

Has lasted 3 months and is still loved 😻
I tried out the cushions because of the price, and now I'm about to order more. That's when I read the surprisingly good reviews. Blitz, our pretty wild tomcat who usually tears things apart, has loved the cushion since mid-April—so for about 3 months now. He cuddles with it, licks it, gets all excited and relaxed at the same time. And even after all this time, he still does it every now and then. The cushion just lies around here, and when he comes home from his adventures, he snuggles up on it 🐻
We think they're brilliant!

Valerian Pillows
Very good product, it has a calming effect on my cats. They really enjoy playing with them and nibbling on them. Catnip doesn't work on ours, but valerian does.

Not great
Nauseating smell and the cat played with it for five minutes before I had to get rid of it because the smell was just unbearable.

Effective for everyone
I bought the pouch for my cats thinking they’d play a bit more calmly, and I ended up buying some for my friends’ cats too. It was a hit with all of them!

Smells awful and the cats ignore it.
My cats didn’t play with it at all. Even worse, the cushion smells absolutely awful, like cheesy feet, and the whole flat is filled with the stench. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend it.
